The Kings of Mykonos

You really need to look at this movie for what it is - a realisation by Nick G and Co. that what we as Greek Australians think it is to be 'Greek' is far from ....

Most Greek Aussies think that they are Greek until they actually go to Greece where they realise that they are a different type of Greek. We are no more Greek than the African Americans are African. We are a hybrid, a culture on to our own. And guess what ... there is nothing wrong with that.

For the first time Nick G respects both the Aussie Greeks and the Greeks from Greece. We are not portrayed as stupid, un-educated, simple or without class. And it's about time ! The boys arrive in Greece thinking that they will be met with village Greeks. The Greeks have moved on. They are glamorous, rich, smart and sophisticated. And guess what ? They consider the Greek Australians foreigners ! A hard lesson.

You need to look at this movie and understand the undertones. Understand what Nick G and Co have realised. They have grown up and its about time.
